Wanted: "The King's Horses"
By Karl Ellison

After a year, I'm still looking for the piano roll, "The King's Horses",
QRS #5108 or Imperial #07752, released April 1931.  Any help or offers
please forward to me.

I was once told by Dan Wilke, QRS's Auction coordinator, that '30s rolls
are especially hard to find.  Is this because of the economy?  The decline
in new player sales?

 [ Editors note:

 [ Don Rand has what I believe is the most complete Imperial rolls
 [ collection around; I'll bet he'll have it, and perhaps you can make
 [ arrangements for a copy:
 [
 [    Don Rand, Clark Music Rolls
 [    163 Main Street, Thomaston, ME 04861
 [    tel: 207-354-8033
 [
 [ Let us know what Don says about the scarcity, too.
